Lasik Eye Surgery

LASIK (Laser-Assisted In Situ Keratomileusis) is one of the most popular vision correction procedures and is FDA-approved. Getting LASIK with Dr. Hecht in one of his safe and comfortable offices is one of the best ways to improve your vision.

Cataract surgery

Just what is a cataract? A cataract is a cloudy lens in the eye. A healthy lens is clear and allows light to pass to the back of the eye. A cataract blocks some of the light. The clouding of the lens from the cataract makes it increasingly difficult to see. Dr. Hecht performs many types of vision correction surgeries including cataract surgery.

Macular Degeneration

Macular degeneration is a leading cause of vision loss in Americans 60 and older. This eye disease gradually destroys sharp, central vision. Your central vision is essential for seeing objects clearly and for tasks such as reading and driving.

glaucoma

First, we should explain just what glaucoma is. Glaucoma is a group of diseases that damage the eye’s optic nerve that can result in vision loss and blindness. The good news is that you can protect your vision against serious loss with early detection and treatment with Dr. Hecht.

Diabetes

Diabetes is an inability of the body to produce insulin. Insulin is a hormone that removes sugar from the blood and puts it into cells where it can be used for energy. Without enough insulin, there is too much sugar in your blood. It’s like having a full tank of gas but no key; you have the fuel you need, but can’t access it.
